Definitions
- the present invention relates to spoked bicycle wheels of the type made of section comprising:
- each nipple being designed to be screwed on a threaded end portion of a respective spoke.
- the inner circumferential wall of the rim has a plurality of holes, each having an edge that acts as a supporting seat for supporting the head of a respective nipple which is inserted into the hole and is screwed onto the threaded end of the respective spoke.
- the head of the nipple is therefore set in the internal space of the rim comprised between the outer circumferential wall and the inner circumferential wall.
- the outer circumferential wall of the rim has a plurality of openings for insertion of the nipples, as well as for insertion of the tool for tightening the nipples.
- the purpose of the present invention is therefore to make a rim of the type referred to at the beginning of the present description that will, however, be usable also with a tubeless tire.
- the subject of the invention is a rim of the type specified above, characterized in that the aforesaid means for supporting the nipples comprise a plurality of nipple supports connected to the rim and arranged outside the section that forms the rim, each of the said nipple supports having a seat for supporting a respective nipple at least partially outside the section that forms the rim.
- the rim according to the invention enables adoption of a tubeless tire in that the outer circumferential wall of the rim is without holes or openings, and is therefore perfectly airtight, whilst the nipples for tightening the spokes can be manoeuvred easily with any appropriate manoeuvring tool since they are arranged outside the section that forms the rim.
- each nipple support supports the respective nipple in a position that is at a slight distance from the inner circumferential wall of the rim in the direction of the axis of the rim.
- each nipple support is made up of a bridge-type bracket which is set substantially in a radial plane containing the axis of the rim and has two opposite ends connected to the rim and a central part having an opening the edge of which functions as a supporting seat for the head of a respective nipple designed to be inserted into said opening.
- each nipple support is designed to co-operate with a corresponding surface of the head of the respective nipple in such a way as to leave the nipple the possibility of being oriented with its axis at least in a plane containing the axis of the rim.
- each nipple support is connected to the rim in an articulated way about an axis that is substantially parallel to the axis of the rim.
- each nipple when assembled it is readily adapted to the orientation that the respective spoke must assume with respect to the rim.
- the ends of the bridge-type bracket that makes up each nipple support are mounted on a pivot connected to the rim.
- This pivot is set so that it passes through two holes facing one another made in the two side walls of the rim in a radially more internal position with respect to the outer circumferential wall of the rim.
- Each pivot has its ends protruding outside of the side walls of the rim, and the respective nipple support has its ends articulated on said protruding ends of the pivot.
- the inner circumferential wall of the rim has a circumferential groove or channel having two side walls, and each pivot of the nipple supports traverses also two holes set facing one another made in said side walls of said channel, the ends of the bracket that each forms a nipple support being articulated on the portion of the respective pivot that is set within said channel.
- each nipple support is articulated by means of respective pivots to respective annular flanges protruding from the inner circumferential wall of the rim.
- each nipple support has an asymmetrical configuration, with the central part of the bracket being inclined with respect to a direction parallel to the axis of the rim in such a way that the respective nipple is supported by said bracket, with its axis forming a camber angle with respect to the median plane orthogonal to the axis of the rim.
- the nipple supports are mounted on the rim in such a way as to form the aforesaid camber angle alternately on one side and on the other side of the median plane of the rim, it of course being possible to choose a different camber angle on each side and a camber angle different for the front wheel than the one for the rear wheel.
- each nipple may be manoeuvred easily, since it is set outside the rim, by means of any suitable tool or wrench designed to engage on one side a portion of the nipple.
- the nipple has, in a way of itself known, a portion with a section shaped for engagement of the wrench.
- the rim according to the invention thus enables assembly and tensioning of the spokes in a way similar to that adopted according to traditional techniques, even though the rim may have a continuous outer wall without any holes or openings.
- the invention obviously relates both to the rim described above and to a bicycle wheel using said rim.
- the invention is suitable for making both front bicycle wheels and rear bicycle wheels since in the two cases the only difference lies in the number and arrangement of the spokes.
- the rim according to the invention enables each nipple to be oriented both in a plane containing the axis of the rim, thanks to the orientable support for the head of the nipple on the nipple-supporting bracket, and in a plane perpendicular to the axis of the rim, thanks to the articulated connection of the nipple-supporting bracket to the rim.
- FIG. 1 is a partial and sectional perspective view of a first embodiment of a rim and of a wheel according to the invention
- FIG. 2 is a sectional view of a detail of FIG. 1;
- FIGS. 3-5 illustrate three variants of FIG. 2 .
- the reference number 1 designates, as a whole, a rim according to the invention.
- the rim may consist, in a way in itself known, of extruded section made of light alloy, but it is clear that the present invention is of general applicability, irrespective of the material and of the technology with which the rim is made.
- the rim 1 comprises an outer circumferential wall 2 , an inner circumferential wall 3 , and two side walls 4 , 5 which connect the two circumferential walls 2 , 3 together.
- the wall 2 moreover has two annular flanges 2 a which protrude radially towards the outside and are designed to be used in a way of itself known for anchoring the tire.
- the outer circumferential wall 2 is a continuous wall without any holes or openings, which means that the rim according to the invention is suitable for being used also with a tubeless tire, even though the use of the rim according to the invention with a traditional tire with inner tube is of course not ruled out.
- the rim according to the invention enables assembly and tensioning of a plurality of spokes R in the traditional way, i.e., by screwing a nut or nipple N on a threaded end portion 6 (see FIG. 2) of the spoke R.
- This is made possible in so far as the nipples N are supported on the outside of the rim 1 by a plurality of nipple supports 7 which are connected to the rim 1 .
- each nipple support 7 consists of a bridge-type bracket comprising two ends 7 a connected to the rim 1 , and a central part 7 b with a hole 7 c, the edge of which functions as a supporting seat for the head 8 of the nipple N, which is inserted in the hole 7 c.
- each pivot P has its ends protruding from the two side walls 4 , 5 to receive on them in an articulated way the ends 7 a of the bracket 7 forming the respective nipple support.
- each pivot P has end heads rivetted (upset) against the ends 7 a of the bracket 7 for withholding the pivot in its axial direction.
- each bracket 7 to the rim 1 by means of the respective pivot P makes it possible to orient the axis of the nipple about the axis of the pivot.
- the hole 7 c which receives the head 8 of the nipple N is made in a portion of the bracket 7 which can be shaped (drawn) so as to have a conical or spherical conformation similar to the conformation of the corresponding surface of the head 8 to enable orientation of the axis of the nipple N at least in a radial plane containing the axis of the rim.
- the nipple-supporting bracket 7 enables the respective nipples to be oriented so as to be aligned (parallel) to the respective spokes; consequently, the spokes do not need to be bent to be inserted in the respective nipples.
- each bracket 7 has an asymmetrical configuration, with the central part 7 b being oriented according to a direction inclined with respect to a direction parallel to the axis of the rim, in such a way that the axis of the nipple N, designated by 10 , forms a camber angle A with respect to the median vertical plane M of the rim.
- the nipple N has, in a way of itself known, a portion 11 having a shaped section, for instance a square or hexagonal section, to be engaged on one side by a wrench which enables the nipple N to be tightened easily on a respective spoke R.
- the rim according to the invention enables assembly of a tubeless tire in so far as the outer circumferential wall 2 can be without openings that are traditionally provided in rims of the known art in order to enable insertion of the nipples and access to a manoeuvring tool for tightening the nipples.
- the invention is also applicable to a traditional rim for a tire with inner tube.
- FIG. 2 illustrates the same solution in the case of a rim having side walls 4 , 5 that are parallel to one another.
- brackets 7 are mounted on the rim in such a way as to form the aforesaid camber angle A alternately on one side or on the other side of the rim (as may be seen in FIG. 1 ).
- FIG. 4 illustrates yet another variant, in which the inner circumferential wall 3 of the rim has a circumferential groove or channel 13 with side walls 14 that also have holes 15 facing one another which are also traversed by the pivot P.
- the bracket 7 forming each nipple support is mounted in an articulated way on the portion of the pivot P that is set inside the channel 13 .
- FIG. 5 illustrates a further variant, in which the ends 7 a of each bracket 7 are articulated by means of respective pivots 16 to annular flanges 17 protruding radially inwards from the inner circumferential wall 3 of the rim.
- the principle lying at the basis of the present invention is that of providing means of support for the nipples N which are shaped and arranged in such a way as to support the nipples N outside the section forming the rim, preferably with the possibility of orienting the axis of each nipple both in a plane containing the axis of the rim and in a plane perpendicular to the axis of the rim.
- the details of construction and the embodiments may vary widely with respect to what is described and illustrated herein purely by way of example, without thereby departing from the scope of the present invention.
- the conformation of the cross section of the rim may be any whatsoever, and in particular may be either symmetrical or asymmetrical.
